I would be upfront with the family about the finances and say you can't pay for the batch party or shower but that you could do a less expensive dress. I kave seen tux rentals for $49. A dress, yes that will cost you, but I would think you would want to have something nice to waer - after all it is his family. The reprecussions from bowing out entirely is not worth it IMO.

i agree with Dina... if he is okay with it, i would decline to be in the BPs, but definitely try not to miss the weddings
We would never miss the weddings.

I think backing out after you agreed to be in the wedding, especially since it is family, can lead to a lot of problems down the road.
This is the part that sticks out to me. When you agreed jsut a few months about you knew the expense and you knew wha tyour monthly normal bills were like.
I would be upset and hurt if you accepted and then 2 months later declined. And how would his parents respond? I know this type of thing can cause a rift that goes further than just those directly affected.
